Super Blue Moon tonight.

[SteveSS]

And Saturn is visible to the naked eye. The blue moon isn't blue it is just weird when there are two full moons in one month. Since the moon is so close to the earth tonight it will exaggerate the tides which is going to make the hurricane worse.

It’s cloudy here.

On the radio they were saying if you miss this it will be back in 14 years.

Same expectations over this side of the planet. Should be able to pick Uranus just behind Saturn.

Hope the Moon is big & bright.

Been able to see Saturn and Jupiter with the naked eye, most the summer here in Oregon.

Here it was this morning as I went to walk.

The moon certainly looked big but it was how lit up everything looked that surprised me. It looked like the evening in the middle of the night.

And… it will be cloudy again.

Up here it's called smokey.
Barely saw the damn thing last night

 

[kiwigtx]

It definitely was bright all night here till at least 4:00am....I thought my neighbours had left a light on again.

I see a Blue Moon almost everyday.

This phone camera sucks but cool thing last night the moon had a ring with the low cloudiness.

So if the moon is approximately 240,000 miles away and I'm a mile and a half above sea level, the moon was 1/160,000th closer to me than someone at sea level. I could tell the difference for sure!

Not really, but I wonder if the view is clearer since I have 1 1/2 miles less atmosphere to filter the view. Obviously, they put big telescopes on mountain tops.
